Been some years ago
D
Since I left from my island
A
To go to the mainland,
D
Like the old folks would say
D7 G
As I walked up the gangway
D
And I stood on the starboard
A
And I gazed on the harbor
A7 D G D
On a grey foggy day
D7 G
Summer days they were warmer then
D
When we laughed with the old fishermen
A
And they cursed when the fog rolled in
A7 D
Then they made up the hay
D7 G
It's been more than a long, long time
D
Since I held you and called you mine
A
And we waited for the sun to shine
A7 D G D
On a grey foggy day
D7 G
To wake in the early morn
D
To the sound of the old fog horn
A
And wait for the men to return
A7 D
With their boats in the bay
D7 G
All these things I don't see no more
D
When I lived on the old cape shore
A
And I gazed on the boats on the moors
A7 D G D
On a grey foggy day
D7 G
Summer days they were warmer then
D
When we laughed with the old fishermen
A
And they cursed when the fog rolled in
A7 D
Then they made up the hay
D7 G
It's been more than a long, long time
D
Since I held you and called you mine
A
And we waited for the sun to shine
A7 D G D
On a grey foggy day
D7 G
And as long as my heart
D
Doesn't break from those old memories
A
Old lovers and old use-to-bes
A7 D
I'll come home for to stay
D7 G
I can still hear the ocean roar
D
Through the hills on the old cape shore
A
There are no fishing boats anymore
A7 D G D
But it's a grey foggy, foggy day
D7 G
Summer days they were warmer then
D
When we laughed with the old fishermen
A
And they cursed when the fog rolled in
A7 D
Then they made up the hay
D7 G
It's been more than a long, long time
D
Since I held you and called you mine
A
And we waited for the sun to shine
A7 D G D
On a grey foggy day
A A7
And I pray that the sun will shine
D G D
On this grey foggy day!
